Jupiter and Saturn will be closest in 800 years, and return of the miraculous star of Bethlehem

Scientists say that on the night of December 21, the two major planets in the solar system, Jupiter and Saturn, will merge in such a way that they will look like a double planet to the human eye.

This scene can be seen all over the world including Pakistan on the night of December 21 provided the weather is clear.

And this time the reunion is taking place at a time when some believe it was the source of the bright light seen in the sky 2,000 years ago, now known as the Star of Bethlehem.

The two planets will be seen very close on the night of December 21, completing their orbits close to each other.

In the UK, too, star observers will keep a close eye on the weather to avoid astronomical disappointment so that they can see the scene with their own eyes.

Caroline Crawford, of the Cambridge University's Institute of Astronomy, told that if it appeared in the evening, it was a sight to behold, but this time the weather was not clear.

If the December weather doesn't disappoint, the two planets will be visible in the southwestern part of the sky immediately after sunset.

Both planets will appear in the southwestern sky just above the horizon immediately after sunset.

Some astronomers and religious leaders believe that this star is the return of Bethlehem.

According to an online article by Professor Eric M. Wenden-Eckel, a professor of religion at Froome College in Virginia, the time the two planets met has led to many speculations as to whether this is the same astronomical scene that the Bible describes. It is also mentioned that because of this star, the wise people turned to Hazrat Yusuf, Hazrat Maryam and their newborn children Jesus.

This is nothing new, but old speculation. The idea that Jupiter and Saturn could actually be a "miracle star" was first proposed in the 17th century by Johannes Kepler, a German astronomer and mathematician.

According to Dr. Caroline Crawford, 2000 years ago, people were aware of what was happening in the night sky. So it's not impossible that Bethlehem's 2,000-year-old miraculous star is a similar combination of planets.

Since the planets travel around the sun in their orbits, such a combination is not uncommon, but the combination of the two planets is a special occasion.

Tim O'Brien, a professor of astrophysics at the University of Manchester, told the BBC that the intersection of planets is a special thing. And such a combination often happens, but the combination of these two planets with each other is a very remarkable thing.

These two planets, in fact one of the largest and brightest bodies in our solar system, have not come so close to each other for 800 years. According to weather forecasters in the UK, this may not be the most favorable weather for astrologers, but it could change.

According to Professor Tim O'Brien, this situation changes over the hours. This is the weather in the UK and this is the science of astronomy for you.

These planets will set in the southwest, so you have to get out as soon as the sun sets.

According to him, "none of us will live another four hundred years, so keep an eye on the weather and if you get the chance, go out of the house to see this miraculous star."

Seven beautiful animals we cannot see now

Seven beautiful animals we cannot see now We may think of the extinction of a species as a sudden but occasional event, but the reality is that extinction is alarmingly normal. According to the World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF), about 10,000 species become extinct each year. But the WWF says the exact number is not known because we do not yet know how many species there are around the world. Let's take a look at some of the animals that became extinct from  this planet and also see which of them came back in a surprising and unexpected way. 1: Yangtze River Dolphin Scientific name: Lipotes vexillifer Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Artiodactyla Infraorder: Cetacea Clade: Delphinida Superfamily: Lipotoidea Family: Lipotidae Genus: Lipotes Miller, 1918  Species: L. vexillifer  The Yangtze River dolphin, which became extinct in 2006, was a pale gray mammal that looked relatively less powerful than its cousins ​​floating in the ocean. Beneath...

WHAT BIRTH ORDER SAYS ABOUT PERSONALITY?

How Birth Order Affects Personality? In spite of sharing genes and environments, siblings are often not as similar in nature as one might think. But why these differences are produced? Frank Sulloway author of Born to Rebel says, " Birth order only explains a small part of who we are, but personality changes definitely exist between siblings."He further says,  "These are the roles siblings adopt that lead to differences in behavior. And parents tend to reinforce these roles, whether they realize it or not. Alfred Adler, an Austrian psychotherapist and founder of individual psychology, suggested that birth order leads to differences in siblings. He said  that a child's personality, intelligence, and success depend on his or her birth order or number in family. Adler said the order of birth of a child affects his personality. The reason is that parents treat younger and older children differently He also believes that comparing children to others makes them feel...

Here we will talk about six things which we use frequently directly or indirectly in or our daily life. These things have a deep effect on our everyday life.  1. Sand You may be thinking that even the sand may disappear from the world. We have so many deserts and beaches where there is only sand. But the fact is that sand and gravel are the most widely used solids in the world. According to the United Nations, it is not growing as fast as it should. The sand created over thousands of years by natural erosion is used daily on large-scale in construction work, water ...
